Performance Analysis of Spatial Modulation over Weibull Fading Channels
Authors: ,
Abstract: Ascertaining the importance of the recently proposed spatial modulation, we study its performance in Weibull multipath fading channels. Closed form integral expressions for calculating the symbol error rate of spatial modulation (SM) in independent, not necessarily identical Weibull fading channels are derived. Simulation and the analytical results, considering different transmission scenarios, are very close over a wide range of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values.
